Illinois Long Distance Movers
Illinois Moving Company
Long distance and
commercial move charges are based mainly on the weight of your items
and the distance they need to be moved.
It just makes
sense that moving a sparsely furnished four-room house from New York
to Washington DC will be cheaper than moving a fourteen room house
packed with furniture from Seattle to New York.
Because weight is
perhaps the biggest determinant of price for a long distance move,
here is something you must know:
The weight of your items is actually measured on a scale. Only, the
scale is for the truck. Before the move, the weight of the truck
without your goods is measured. This is called "empty weight". The
scales are usually located at the nearest truck stops or at the
moving companies' facilities. You are allowed to accompany the
driver to the scale during the weigh-in to ensure that everything is
in order. Make sure that your mover provides you with an "empty
weight" receipt.
